Service Deployment Notes

Offline mode can be run interactively or adapted to a long-running Linux service deployment.

Recommended Bring-Up Pattern

1. Validate the configuration.
2. Run in the foreground first.
3. Confirm logs and NDJSON output.
4. Move to a service-style deployment after behavior is stable.

Existing Service Assets

The repo already contains Linux service and packaging assets, including:

• systemd/pqc-sniffer.service
• packaging/systemd/pqc-sniffer.service
• scripts/install.sh
• packaging/build-rpm.sh

Important Note

This site is still offline-mode focused. It does not attempt to fully document every packaging and service-install path in the repo. Instead, it gives operators the minimum context needed to understand how offline mode fits into a managed Linux deployment.

Practical Advice

• Keep logging.database.enabled: false in offline-only deployments.
• Validate output paths before running under systemd.
• Confirm file permissions for both the log file and NDJSON destination.
• Verify rotation settings early so retention matches operator expectations.
